The transition to parenthood can be surprisingly hard. This thing that you might have wanted for years has a way of upending your plans, priorities - even identity. Sometimes, you just need a place to sort through all the change and figure out how to stay connected with yourself and your new role. Simultaneously. Joyously. Tired-ly (probably). I work with new parents (individually or as a couple) and parents who are years into this ever-changing journey to help them feel grounded, seen, and connected. We collaborate on what's important, what needs some exploration, and what might no longer be serving them.
I draw from psychodynamic, ACT, Narrative, and IFS approaches, tailoring each session to the unique needs of the person in front of me. Together we might explore past patterns, clarify values, reshape personal stories, or connect with different parts of the self—all with the goal of fostering growth, balance, and a deeper sense of authenticity.
I understand how overwhelming searching for a new therapist can feel. If you are curious about working together, please reach out for a free 15 minute phone consultation to see if we might be a good match. I hope to help you take steps towards the life you want. Specialties: Perinatal, Couples, Anxiety, Stress, Creatives, Grief/Loss, Life Transitions

I support clients and couples facing pre and postpartum difficulties and help them find a way to stay connected while figuring out their new parenting roles. In my work with teens, I focus on values, confidence, and social skills to help clients feel more confident and comfortable. For creatives, our work often focuses on navigating the uncertainty, stress, and ups and downs of entertainment.

My approach is grounded in connection and collaboration, guided by a psychodynamic lens. I draw from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Internal Family Systems to support clients in moving toward the changes they hope to see. Because therapy is deeply personal, I regularly check in to make sure our work feels helpful and meaningful, and adapt along the way.
